Today, I’d like to share my version of the popular Mint Julep cocktail. The Mint Julep is a cocktail usually made with a bourbon base, sugar, water, and mint leaves. It’s a popular summer drink and is the official drink of the Kentucky Derby – a famous American horse race that takes place in Kentucky on the first Saturday in May (tomorrow!). I randomly created this version of the cocktail when I didn’t have any sugar or simple syrup (sugar water) handy.
